Targum zu Kohelet 7:1
ט֥וֹב שֵׁ֖ם מִשֶּׁ֣מֶן ט֑וֹב וְי֣וֹם הַמָּ֔וֶת מִיּ֖וֹם הִוָּלְדֽוֹ׃
Besser ein guter Name als köstliches Öl; besser der Tag des Todes als der Tag seiner Geburt.
Aramaic Targum to Ecclesiastes
Better the good name which the righteous acquire in this world, than the anointing oil which was poured upon the heads of kings and priests; and the day wherein a man dies and departs to the grave with a good name and merits, than the day wherein the wicked is born into the world.
